Qualcomm will soon unveil the Snapdragon 8 1G 4G chip
Qualcomm's 1st generation Snapdragon 8 processor Qualcomm's most powerful flagship chip is now the chip company that forms the beating heart of many new smartphones. The processor is also expected to be the mastermind of most 2022 Android flagships. This year, however, the Snapdragon 8 Generation 1 will face stiff competition from proprietary chips from Apple, Samsung and Google. MediaTek, on the other hand, also produces very powerful chips. Now, however, new reports suggest that Qualcomm is working on a 4G version of the Snapdragon 8 generation 1 chip and is set to unveil it soon.- Snapdragon 8 Generation 1 is a more powerful GPU than
the Exynos 2200 In November 2021 (December 1400), the chip
maker company unveiled the 1st generation Snapdragon 8
chip and it has been used in many Android smartphones. In
this regard, a post by a Chinese whistleblower on the social
network Weibo indicates that Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 1G 4G
generation will be introduced soon. This processor uses the same
specifications of the 5G chip and the only difference is in
its 4G modem. So we expect its core to be the Cortex-X2, which
offers a working frequency of 3.5 GHz. It will also be equipped
with three 2.5 GHz Cortex-A710 cores.
It is expected that 4 low-power cores of ARM Cortex A510 with operating frequency of 1.8 GHz will also be used in this chip. All cores of this chip have access to 6 MB level 3 cache. According to Qualcomm, this chipset is about 20% faster than the Snapdragon 888 and consumes up to 30% less energy. The Snapdragon 8 4G generation uses the Adreno 730 GPU, which will have about 30% more processing power than the Adreno 660 GPU.
Although most Android smartphones are moving towards the 5G version The chipsets are lean, but there is a company that is interested in the 4G version of the chip, and that company is none other than Huawei. It is said that the Huawei Mate 50 Pro series with the Snapdragon 8 1G 4G chip will be launched in the Android smartphone market.
- Which Galaxy S22 has better performance: Exynos 2200 or Snapdragon 8 Generation 1?
Not to mention that the Snapdragon 8 Generation 1 is Qualcomm's first 4-nanometer chip, which, as expected, consists of 3 parts, but now all its processing cores are based on the new ARMv9 architecture. are. Thanks to the new architecture, the GPU of this chip offers 30% better performance than the previous generation and consumes up to 25% less energy. Qualcomm has developed three gaming-specific software modes for the chip's GPU, which allow developers to strike a very good balance between performance and power consumption.
It should also be noted that this chipset uses the Spectra 680 as an image signal processor, which enables HDR video recording with 8K resolution and simultaneous photography with a resolution of 64 megapixels. According to Qualcomm, the processor can process 240 12-megapixel photos in 1 second. Qualcomm has partnered with a number of well-known game developers to make gaming more comfortable in games based on the chip. More news of the chip 4G version of this chip will probably be released in cyberspace in the coming days.
